Chapter 21: The scam

"Man this is a massive scam, no matter how I look at it.

Non-climber families like ours are not allowed to possess more than 1 tower gold coins.

The fees for any good university on floor 0 is at least 5-7,000 TG a semester, so there is no way in hell that you can pay that amount yourself if your parents are not already climbers....." Adam mumbled in annoyance as Taylor picked up from where he left off and continued " and the only place where you can borrow 7000 TG is the Climbers Association, the same place where you test your talent.

However, for lending that money, they make you sign a bond which forces you to provide at least one year of mandatory service to the association and you swear to protect humanity in at least two upcoming raids by serving on the front lines.

So effectively what they do is that they don\'t let you earn TG, force you into fighting for humanity, and then leech a % of your income until you pay back the principal with a 7% rate of interest"

*Claps*

The three friends sarcastically clapped for the brutal business practices that the climbers association followed as a monopoly, however, they also understood that it was because of these said policies that Earth remained the safe haven that it was.

"What university are you planning for?" Rocky eventually asked the two friends as they waited in line for their turn to be tested.

" I\'m going to go for the university of basic elements if my talent is atleast a C.

It has great alumni, a good campus and a great education program, what about you two?" Taylor replied

" I\'m more interested in the university for non-combatants.

I want to become like the great forger Kalash, he\'s paid in millions, he\'s more respected than guildmaster Karna at times.

He\'s living the life" Adam said, as he turned towards Rocky, awaiting his answer.

" I\'m aiming for the university for nourishment of young talents.... But let\'s see" Rocky said as both Adam and Taylor instantly cracked up at his choice.

" Hahahaha! The number one ranked university on floor 0, of course you want that one" Taylor said, laughing out loud.

" Brother the fee is around 100,000 gold a semester.

You will drown in debt I\'m telling you, D-R-O-W-N" Adam said as he slit his finger across his throat, showing Rocky that he would be a dead man if he made that choice.

"Do you really think you will be ranked A or higher in the talent evaluation? They don\'t even take in A- you know, the university for nourishment of young talents is a brutal place-" Taylor said, reminding Rocky that even if he ignored the economics of it, he would still be unable to enter the place without sufficient talent.

"Man, their principal is infamously crazy! Even your sister avoided that university although she could have enrolled into it" Adam said as Rocky shrugged his shoulder and smiled nonchalantly.

He did not care what others said, he had already made up his mind that if the university for nourishment of young talents was ready to have him, Rocky was ready to go there, regardless of what others told him.

"Alright, wish me luck boys, looks like I\'m up next" Taylor said as the display monitor showed his name and Taylor was asked to enter the talent testing chamber.

Rocky and Adam wished him the best of luck and eagerly waited for his result as they stared at the monitor outside.
